How to exclude specific page from cache like "checkout"

[tomeda]

Hi,

How can I exclude checkout page from totally being cached?

I'm using this checkout extension https://www.opencart.com/index.php?route=marketplace/extension/info&extension_id=7382 , and the chekcout is not working correctly, as it loads dynamic data in some fields somehow it fails to calculate shipping price and so on.

So if I can exclude the cache for that extension or page would be great?

Thanks!

I don't know Opencart cache plugin and don't know if there is a function to exlude URLs from caching. If there is no such function you can exclude specific URLs from being cached in defining a cache rule in .htaccess. Otherweise check plugin functions.

Example:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /(file).php$
RewriteRule .* - [E=Cache-Control:no-cache]

Here is what I have and what I've done.

Again, I don't know this plugin. If there is no function to add a new hook you have to find someone who extends this plugin or try it manually with a vary cache rule in .htaccess. Or open a support ticket to get help.

chekcout should not be cached unless you enabled the cashe globaly incorrectly on the server configuration.

I'm on shared hosting so not sure what's the server configuration.

It doesn't matter if you on shared hosting, vServer or dedicated server. The problem is that this extension doesn't use default checkout and Litespeed Cache plugin doesn't know this extension and can't exclude this extension from beeing cached. You need someone who can extend Litespeed cache plugin. If you don't find someone you can also define a rewrite rule in .htaccess to exclude used URLs from beeing cached.
